Discernment of Doors
I have often prayed, “God, only open the doors you have for me and close everything else,” but for some reason, I have walked through countless doors that weren’t meant for me to walk through, and I’m not sure how that happened.

friends and family surrounding dancers
and there I stood
alone
no one came
